How delightful!
What a beautiful opportunity, Deb!! Congratulations <3
Thanks Jen – it was especially wonderful that Ross and I were both invited – We usually go to very different conferences. There were journalists, scientists, designers, political thinkers – sometimes I wasn’t sure what to say in conversation while waiting on a foos line – when the man next to me was the president of the Ploughshares Fund, for instance. (A major aniti-nuclear organization)
So much inspiration. Perhaps another deck of cards is coming 🙏. Your first version of the Soul Cards is my daily guidepost. Thank you
Katrice – Actually – YES, I am seriously looking at two possible decks to be released in 2020, the 25th anniversary of SoulCards 1. One would be more of the same – SoulCards 3. the other just faces….trying to decide whether to do one or both…..
